normally back to header tank but in some systems where there is no tank there will be a small pipe going through wall to the outside of the property

What is the function of a cold feed and expansion pipe?

Cold feed is cold water that supplies boiler water for heating system. Expansion tank relieves excess pressure buildup in heating system.The Cold feed should enter the supply line rather then the return as not to thermo shock a boiler and the expansion tank is to protect the system from excessive pressureAs water is heated it expands causing higher pressures the tank acts an asorber for this expansion

Is the furnace drain pipe clogged causing any issues with the heating system?

To determine if the furnace drain pipe is clogged and causing issues with the heating system, you should check for any signs of water leakage or blockage in the pipe. If the pipe is clogged, it can lead to water backup and potential damage to the heating system. It is recommended to have a professional inspect and clear the drain pipe if necessary to ensure the heating system functions properly.


What is the purpose of a condensation pipe in a heating or cooling system?

The purpose of a condensation pipe in a heating or cooling system is to remove excess water that forms during the process of heating or cooling, preventing water damage and maintaining the efficiency of the system.

How do you calculate the amount of water in a central heating system ..pipe and radiators?

One would need to know the pipe sizes, boiler and expansion tank capacity and total length of pipe etc to figure the system`s volume. So instead, drain it, look at the water meter reading, fill it, look at the meter again and subtract the first reading from the second.


How a 1 pipe steam system works?

A one-pipe steam system uses a single pipe to distribute steam from a boiler to various heating units, such as radiators. Steam travels through the pipe, heating the units, and then condenses back into water, which returns to the boiler by gravity. The system relies on the principles of thermodynamics, where steam rises and pushes the condensate back down the pipe. This type of system is typically simpler and less expensive to install, but can be less efficient than two-pipe systems.


Why should expansion loops be incorporated into a system?

In a pipeline system, expansion loops, which may actually be ahorseshoe or w-shape besides a loop, provide a tolerance for the pipe when it experiences a thermal expansion or contraction.


Why do pipes in a steam-heating system need to be insulated?

So the pressure wont bust the pipe.
